Their late involvement meant that the movement compromised by modifying existing Goblin breeds—dubbed by the Neko/Neo prefix.

Naturally, each race holds bias towards the others (contrasting a naturally evolved Goblinkind race, they may feel their cousin races are artificially inferior, like how we treat people with plastic surgery).
